The 56th Annual McDaniel-Baxter XC Invite
We hope you are able to join us for what should be a great day of racing on the hills and trails at Chenango Valley High School. This year we have developed a challenging 4K course and have 2 modified and 3 varsity races available. There will also be a Warrior kids fun run prior to the awards ceremony.
POINTS OF EMPHASIS
Our course is constantly changing as we adapt to weather, routes, and our capital project construction. The final course will be emailed prior to the event and will of course include our famous hills! We have lots of obstacles with the new construction happening at the HS that we will be working around.
The distance for all high school races is 4K (2.49miles) and 2K for Modified.
The varsity boys races have a maximum of 10 entrants and a minimum of 7 (unless your program does not have 7 athletes who are competitive at the varsity level).
Larger schools are encouraged to enter up to 10 runners in the varsity boys race to help reduce the size of the JV boys race.
Individual awards will be handed out in chute.
The Warrior Kids Fun Run is open to all kids 5th grade and under and there is no prior registration needed to run this.
